New Seahawks offensive coordinator Brian Fleury... is 46 years old and has never called plays before at any level of football, while former offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak was good enough at the job to elevate the Seahawks to a Super Bowl... That transition alone makes it improbable that Smith-Njigba repeats as fantasy's overall WR1

Smith-Njigba's WR1 repeat unlikely with unproven new OC Brian Fleury.

JJ Zachariason fades Smith-Njigba despite his fantasy WR1 finish, citing the Seahawks' offensive coordinator transition. New OC Brian Fleury is 46 years old and has never called plays at any level, replacing Klint Kubiak who was accomplished enough to elevate Seattle to a Super Bowl and land a head coaching job with the Raiders. Zachariason argues this transition alone makes it improbable that Smith-Njigba repeats as fantasy's overall WR1, which is the goal of a first-round WR selection.
